روكز خلال وقفة "تضامنية" من ساحة الشهداء: ترقيت منذ ساعات إلى رتبة مواطن
Read this story in English
شارك العميد شامل روكز في الوقفة التضامنية معه في ساحة الشهداء الخميس ، التي جاءت بعد تقاعده وتعيين ماورن القبياتي قائدا لفوج المغاوير مكانه.
وألقى روكز كلمة أمام مشاركين ومحبين له "أنا شامل روكز ضابط مغوار في الجيش ترقيت منذ ساعات إلى رتبة مواطن، سأبقى في رحم مؤسسة الجيش من خلال التزامي".
وقال "تستحضرني في هذه اللحظات ذكرى الشهداء وأهاليهم، وأقول لهم أنتم القضية والأساس، ولن يكون جيشنا في أي وقت غير جيش للشعب".
وخلص روكز الى القول "لن أتقاعد لأن النضال وحب الوطن لا يقف عند بزة أو منصب أو وظيفة، وسأكون دائما كما عرفتموني، وبيننا سيكون أكثر من لقاء".
والخميس تقاعد العميد روكز صهر رئيس تكتل "التغيير والاصلاح" النائب ميشال عون الذي لطالما طالب بتعيينه قائدا للجيش مكان العماد جان قهوجي الممدة ولايته.
وبانتهاء ولاية روكز تكون المبادرة حول الترقيات العسكرية قد فشلت.
وكانت المبادرة تقوم على اقتراح ترقية ثلاثة عمداء من الجيش الى رتبة ألوية الا أنها فشلت بعد معارضة بعض وزراء و اللقاء التشاوري الذي يضم الرئيس السابق ميشال سليمان ووزير الدفاع سمير مقبل الذي لم يوقع على الاقتراح.

is being a Citizen so bad?
don't cry many people retire without making a fuss of it....

so then all the army officers retiring should go to martyrs square and demonstrate! LOL
he is just an army officer like any one else... oh! because he is aoun's son in law is what makes him sooooo special? LOL

Gen. Shameless "self promoter" Roukoz at as solidarity rally called for by Claudine his wife on instagram.

Chamelle huge deficiency is being the son-in-law of a mentally ill person...

Interesting proposal : become a general at Ebola...they pay a lot and have lost recently many top officers

HE was a great officer and it's too bad Gen Aoun burnt his chances for promotion. WA MINAL 7OUBBI MA KATAL.

the trio of flamethrower, mowaten and the_roar made this forum a mockery. Evil people with no life!

Just compare the elegance of the comments of NORMA.JEAN and her friends with the low talks and insults from the Syrian and Iranian agents.

sure we should be grateful to an employee for doing what he was hired and paid to do.

is he going to establish a Christian armed force to help Hezbollah protecting Lebanon from da3esh and from Israel ?? If General Aoun really thinks Lebanon needs Moukawama, he should help.

flamethrower the troll : isn't it that most citizens have a 9 to 5 job? that's what your shameless roukuz just got promoted to.

I see that the popularity of Roukoz is annoying many people here, the same people who backed him up when he was in the army and led the battle of Arsal and many others... This rally is just to launch his political carreer, and it launched it big time. Many other generals also , had a political carreer like Ashraf Rifi for example , not to mention Michel Suleiman. So dont blame the guy for wanting to go into politics to serve his country as he said.
Give him some time and the benefit of the doubt, and judge him on his actions in this new role and not on his family ties . I think we all agree that Lebanon needs charismatic and most important patriotic, transparent leaders, so let's see. Besides wouldnt u be happy if all what he will do is just moving Bassil away ! :)

ugly leb politics have burned u..
u are a very fine servicemen.
